Press Release for Immediate Diffusion
La Malbaie, April 11th 2020 – The Harricana Events team has acknowledged the Quebec government’s request to cancel all events organized in Quebec up until August 31, as a preventative measure against the propagation of COVID-19. The team is actively investigating all possible scenarios for Ultra-Trail Harricana of Canada, scheduled for September 11 to 13 in Charlevoix, so that the event may comply with government regulations, and act in a responsible manner that prioritizes the best interests of both the participants and the general population.
